More than likely it's a loose connection inside the trip computer itself. Here is a link on how to fix it

I think its more than a fuse...I tapped it with my fingers and it flashed on.. I think I better let a pro do it before I burn myself. Electronics this small is not my thing.
Thanks for the help.

You can't run a soldering gun? The link will tell you exactly how to fix it and will cost you about 5 min of your time. Or you could take it out and drop it off at an electronics repair shop
Ford get's about $400 for that little sucker if you plan on buying a new one :bang

Good luck

How the hell do you get this thing out? I can't find a screw and don't want to pull any harder then I have. You would think Ford would have a recall on this thing? Who the hell would you take this thing to? Maybe I should call DJ.

Thanks all.
